Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Falken ZIEX ZE320 225-45-17- Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0 TDI 140hp January 6, 2025
These tires have given good grip both wet and dry. The steering response is better than other previous brands. So far they are lasting well and with the added advantage of an accidental damage guarantee offer great value for money. I will be buying these again when they have worn out.

Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 235-40-18-W Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0 TDI 140hp 100 miles October 29, 2018
These were on my car when I bought it with medium tread, I made the huge mistake of putting pirellis on it, even when the hankooks were nearly legal they were better, they are awesome in the wet. I am sat here right now getting hankooks back on the car. Best tires on the market in my opinion.

Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 235-40-18-W Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0 TDI 140hp 10,000 miles February 9, 2014
Recently changed front 2 tires as car came with these on the fronts. Grip in dry and wet is suberb and makes the car feel glued to the road. Can throw the car into corners with ease knowing you will smile coming out the other side putting your foot back on the accelerator. These tires really let you feel the road and give the steering wheel that solid feel. Standing water not an issue either. Had different tires on different cars previously but these are definitely up there with the best. Considering vredestien ultrac vorti's in the future for rears would be good to see someone review these if they have them on their Rocco!

Triangle TR968 235-45-17- Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0 TDI 140hp 45,000 miles July 22, 2013
I do alot of motor milage in my 2.0 VW Sciroco & the standard high end tires were costing me fortune to replace each year, so I made a decision to try Triangle TR968's for less than 1/2 price a set. These tires are safe, durable & perform just as good as any high end tire I have used over the years; even in heavy rain. I would even consider them as an alternative track day tire.

Continental Sport Contact 2 235-40-18- Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0 TDI 140hp 12,500 miles January 21, 2012
Supplied with my car from new. Very poor wear only having covered 12500 miles and fronts worn to legal limit! I don't drive fast and only mainly used for town journeys. Also quite noisy at speed. In my opinion very expensive for such high wear rate. Good points are that they are very grippy in both wet and dry and give you confidence when driving. I am seriously considering changing for another make as can't face spending this much for so little miles!

Continental ContiSportContact 5 P 235-40-19- Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0 TDI 140hp 1,000 miles February 7, 2011
ESP doesn't get activated that quick. That means it has a lot of traction/grip on the road.

Much better than the SportContact 3
